Some of the men who were summoned as grand and petit jurors have ignored their subpenaes and failed to put in an appearance, and as it is this class Of men who complain the loudest and kick the the highest, we hope Judge Wright will order writ of attachment for them and fine them all to the full extent Of the law. Something of this kind would have wholesome effect on some of our citizens

The Post Office Department at Wash ington engaged the services of some inn ported Siberian blood-hounds, and sent them out on circle, to hunt up trail. They failed to strike any until St. Johns was reached-here they first gave mouth as having struck trail, and the bonds men of our late postmaster have been notified, that unless they settle the de- ficiency within thirty days, suit will be instituted against them to recover $l66. 69. Gentlemen, you had better step up and settle; it is the easiest and cheapest way out of the difficulty.

From parties up from Holbrook, we learn that there was shooting affair at that place last Friday night which re- suited fatally to one of the participants, and the serious wounding of another. It appears the Mexican population of that town gave a ballie, and that some of the cowboys happening to be in town, went to the dance. As usual some of the "caballeros' thought the Americans were monopolizing the "senoritas," and took umbrage thereat. The difficulty at the dance was confined to words; but afterward some of the Mexicans meeting the cowboys in front of the bakery, fire was opened, it is claimed by the Mexi- cans, and some thirty or forty shots ex- changed in rapid succession. Angel Benajos was shot three times, once through the heart and twice in the stom- ach. An American named Picket was shot in the ankle, the ball ranging down ward passed through the foot diagonally

The grand jury of Socorro county, N.

We were informed by Hon. James Scott that some horse thieves went into Snowflake last Saturday night week, be- tween the hours of ten and one o'clock 1; entered some stables and stole three horses. They were pursued the next morning by parties from that place, but their horses giving out they returned without having overtaken the thieves. About the same time some party or par ties drove off ten head of Mir. Morten- sens horses from his ranch, about l2 or 14 miles west of Show Low. Our citi- zens will be driven to making short work of these marauders in self-defence. From all we can gather horse stealing is on the increase rather than the decrease. Scarcely day passes that we do not hear of horses being taken from some locality brother in this section of country. The people have borne such things al- most as long as human nature can en- dure it, and we would not be surprised at any time, to hear of men being found hanged-by whom, no one will know.

THE PRICE WE MUST GIVE.
The steps which upwardlead, through sorrow
and darkness must no.

The steps which upward lead, through sorrow
and darkness must 60.
Turn how we may, tits always 90
Would we strive after the true and tue right
Then rest assured we must prepare for a
hard fight.
For our passions in madness win bite,
And strive to put our resolutions to flight.
For they love darkness rather than light,
And are always willing TO batter the Day for
the Night.
And our senses lean to the false aud turn
from the true
As Eve when the apple she yiewed,--
And lost her Eden, her God and all that was
true
For the eye in its seeing gives wrong views
of nature and life,
And great things often become common and
And the small things are given a tinsel SO
bright,
That we love them At first sight,
And for them are ready to shout and to fight,
But the true pilgrim whose aim Is Wisdom's
towers,
Giyeth heed TO other vices, other powers.
Zens-like, he dsheth all time, and all space,
And maketh his home beneath the surface
OF what the eye seeth, and the ear heaFeth
For we'll he knoweth that into darkness they
leadeth,
The unthinklng alonE-eVen rs the sirens
nagie-song-
Turned the mariner from the harbor almost
Wone.
Ah, sight and sound what woe ye have
wrought us
Like royal-Fobbers, tears and blood have ye
brought us.
And the bond which once bound us as
brothers,
Ye broke and have hound us with others
Others which as eVil-Weeds yield naught but
labor and curses
And blood and tears and crosses.
Until at last like Demons with curses bound
We i've as brutes on barren ground.
Would we others the eross-of-llfe help to
bearg
Then we must the crown-of-thorns prepare
to wear.
Yea, all true men must wear IT,
The Son Of God could not save without u.
And the lips from whence we look for bless
WIN yield US naught but cursings.
And The cry che hath a devil away with
His blood be upon US, "cruoify him "cruclfy
him Pi
The sweetest Of music will yield them.
Yea, tears and blood, sorrow and death, we
must receive them,
And weaYv them into crowns an ! wear them,
For so in the Book OF Life-'tis written
By Gods own hand in blood twas written,
And the power to blot 1t to man never was
given.
There's no other way to heaven.
Would we teach Gods free-making truths,
And lift man with wisdom above the brutes
Then prepare for the stones OF the Prophets,
For tho "Vox pOPulf' knows hoWt0 scoh us,
And meet us with clamors lead and Wild
And call us aliens and angels OF guile.
And some will laugh at us, and call us supe-
TiOr fools
Things by which the wise man rules.
Yet the day will come when the false shall
give way to the true,
And the reward of our labor we shall view.
Then let us be honest, steadfast, brave and
true
And,as God liveth the false gods shall pass
from our view,
And we shall stand in the light of the true.
